It includes one version update. Description: The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 2 kernel has been updated to Linux kernel 3.0.80 which fixes various bugs and security issues. The following security issues have been fixed: * CVE-2013-0160: Timing side channel on attacks were possible on /dev/ptmx that could allow local attackers to predict keypresses like e.g. passwords. This has been fixed again by updating accessed/modified time on the pty devices in resolution of 8 seconds, so that idle time detection can still work. * CVE-2013-3222: The vcc_recvmsg function in net/atm/common.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3223: The ax25_recvmsg function in net/ax25/af_ax25.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain data structure, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3224: The bt_sock_recvmsg function in net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3225: The rfcomm_sock_recvmsg function in net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3227: The caif_seqpkt_recvmsg function in net/caif/caif_socket.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3228: The irda_recvmsg_dgram function in net/irda/af_irda.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3229: The iucv_sock_recvmsg function in net/iucv/af_iucv.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3231: The llc_ui_recvmsg function in net/llc/af_llc.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3232: The nr_recvmsg function in net/netrom/af_netrom.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain data structure, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3234: The rose_recvmsg function in net/rose/af_rose.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain data structure, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3235: net/tipc/socket.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a certain data structure and a certain length variable, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call. * CVE-2013-3076: The crypto API in the Linux kernel did not initialize certain length variables, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call, related to the hash_recvmsg function in crypto/algif_hash.c and the skcipher_recvmsg function in crypto/algif_skcipher.c. * CVE-2013-1979: The scm_set_cred function in include/net/scm.h in the Linux kernel used incorrect uid and gid values during credentials passing, which allowed local users to gain privileges via a crafted application. * A kernel information leak via tkill/tgkill was fixed. The following bugs have been fixed: * reiserfs: fix spurious multiple-fill in reiserfs_readdir_dentry (bnc#822722). * libfc: do not exch_done() on invalid sequence ptr (bnc#810722). * netfilter: ip6t_LOG: fix logging of packet mark (bnc#821930). * hyperv: use 3.4 as LIC version string (bnc#822431). * virtio_net: introduce VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID (bnc#819655). * xen/netback: do not disconnect frontend when seeing oversize packet. * xen/netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header. * xen/netfront: fix kABI after "reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header". * xfs: Fix kABI due to change in xfs_buf (bnc#815356). * xfs: fix race while discarding buffers [V4] (bnc#815356 (comment 36)). * xfs: Serialize file-extending direct IO (bnc#818371). * xhci: Do not switch webcams in some HP ProBooks to XHCI (bnc#805804). * bluetooth: Do not switch BT on HP ProBook 4340 (bnc#812281). * s390/ftrace: fix mcount adjustment (bnc#809895). * mm: memory_dev_init make sure nmi watchdog does not trigger while registering memory sections (bnc#804609, bnc#820434). * patches.fixes/xfs-backward-alloc-fix.diff: xfs: Avoid pathological backwards allocation (bnc#805945). * mm: compaction: Restart compaction from near where it left off * mm: compaction: cache if a pageblock was scanned and no pages were isolated * mm: compaction: clear PG_migrate_skip based on compaction and reclaim activity * mm: compaction: Scan PFN caching KABI workaround * mm: page_allocator: Remove first_pass guard * mm: vmscan: do not stall on writeback during memory compaction Cache compaction restart points for faster compaction cycles (bnc#816451) * qlge: fix dma map leak when the last chunk is not allocated (bnc#819519). * SUNRPC: Get rid of the redundant xprt->shutdown bit field (bnc#800907). * SUNRPC: Ensure that we grab the XPRT_LOCK before calling xprt_alloc_slot (bnc#800907). * SUNRPC: Fix a UDP transport regression (bnc#800907). * SUNRPC: Allow caller of rpc_sleep_on() to select priority levels (bnc#800907). * SUNRPC: Replace xprt->resend and xprt->sending with a priority queue (bnc#800907). * SUNRPC: Fix potential races in xprt_lock_write_next() (bnc#800907). * md: cannot re-add disks after recovery (bnc#808647). * fs/xattr.c:getxattr(): improve handling of allocation failures (bnc#818053). * fs/xattr.c:listxattr(): fall back to vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed (bnc#818053). * fs/xattr.c:setxattr(): improve handling of allocation failures (bnc#818053). * fs/xattr.c: suppress page allocation failure warnings from sys_listxattr() (bnc#818053). * virtio-blk: Call revalidate_disk() upon online disk resize (bnc#817339). * usb-storage: CY7C68300A chips do not support Cypress ATACB (bnc#819295). * patches.kernel.org/patch-3.0.60-61: Update references (add bnc#810580). * usb: Using correct way to clear usb3.0 devices remote wakeup feature (bnc#818516). * xhci: Fix TD size for isochronous URBs (bnc#818514). * ALSA: hda -
